# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

*Title:*                     Drug Offender's Drivers License Suspension Certification.                 

*OMB Control #:*                     2125-0579 (Expiration Date: September 30, 2007).                           ( print page 18511)    

*Background:*                     States are legally required to enact and enforce laws that revoke or suspend the drivers licenses of any individual convicted of a drug offense and to make annual certifications to the FHWA on their actions. The implementing regulations of the Department of Transportation and Related Agencies Appropriation Act, 1993 (Public Law 102-388, October 6, 1992) require annual certifications by the Governors. In this regard, the State must submit by January 1 of each year either a written certification, signed by the Governor, stating that the State is in compliance with 23 U.S.C. 159; or a written certification stating that the Governor is opposed to the enactment or enforcement, and that the State legislature has adopted a resolution expressing its opposition to 23 U.S.C. 159.                 

                    Beginning in Fiscal Year 1996, States' failure to comply by October 1 of each fiscal year resulted in a withholding penalty of 10 percent from major categories of Federal-aid funds (                    *i.e.*, National Highway System, Surface Transportation Program and the Interstate Maintenance Program) from States' apportionments for the fiscal year. Any funds withheld in Fiscal Year 1996 and thereafter cannot be restored and will be redistributed.                 

*Respondents:*                     50 States and the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.                 

*Estimated Annual Burden Hours:*                     Annual average of 5 hours for each respondent; 260 total annual burden hours.
